  • Copywriting tips from Matt Rizvi (“old” podcast #4, now on YouTube)

    Wednesday, 3:30pm
    Saint Paul

    Hey *|FNAME|* I’ve unearthed Matt Rizvi’s podcast—and now it’s on YouTube!

    Maybe you were here when this was first recorded… or maybe you’re newer to the list (welcome!).

    Either way…

    I recorded Episode 4 of my Persuasion Play Podcast with direct response copywriter Matt Rizvi waaay back in 2019.

    Then, like all my podcast episodes, it got bumped when the next was recorded…

    Lost to history… forever.

    But not really.

    Now I’m putting old episodes up on YouTube so anyone can watch ’em—free.

    Here it is, the Persuasion Play Podcast episode 004:

  • Digging for Denny Hatch’s Gold

    A few years ago, I wrote to Direct Response Copywriter Denny Hatch.

    He wrote the book “Secrets of Emotional, Hotbutton Copywriting” (summary here) and I was trying to get a copy.

    Denny told me that he’s got a guy working to get it republished.

    I checked in with Denny again last month. I asked if he was open to record a podcast.

    You know, dig for a little gold, here in the Goldmine.

    Denny responded:

    Could you make better decisions?

    I think we all could.

  • Kevin Hart’s Guide To Complaining

    This chair is Ass.

    5:22
    Saint Paul

    Yesterday morning while I was getting ready for work, I listened to a bit of the Joe Rogan podcast with comedian Kevin Hart.

    Kevin is hilarious. His new Netflix special “Irresponsible” is great (unlike the dirty and actually irresponsible stand-up special by a pregnant comedian whom I shall not name.)

    Now, on Rogan’s podcast, Kevin talks about surrounding yourself with positivity.

    It’s so easy to complain, he says: (more…)
